Did you see this in Real Simple? I thought it was genius!
What a fabulous way to get your children journaling. How? Simple!
- keep a small notebook close by with colored pencils or crayons
- each evening ask, “what color was your day?”
- let your child choose a color and get to work
- finish by asking a simple question about their ‘color’
- jot their answer down on a label
I’m definitely going to add this to my ‘post-bwp‘ goals … love it! Anyone know where I can get a good journal? ;)

Oh!! Looooooooove that idea!
As far as journals . . .I like their suggestion of a Moleskin. Those are nice an durable and come in all sorts of sizes. I think B&N even carries them! Then I’d stock up on some colored Smencils, because they smell yummy and kids can’t resist them! You’d have a fabulous journal by summer’s end!!
What a GREAT idea! I’m going to have to try that. Thanks for sharing.
